  • The MarketPlace Mocha Episode 2: A conversation with Taigh Adebajo
    Hey People of the MarketPlace Cafe,
    In this episode I have a conversation with Taigh Adebajo. He’s Nigerian British and he just finished second year at the University of Warwick, studying Global sustainable development with business. He has had work experience at the Bank of England and the UN youth development programme.
    I talk to him about an initiative of his The Bridge Capital, where he is the chief investment officer. It’s a student led investment club, which helps investors also have social impact, specifically in African countries.
